“Our miracle took place two hours away, in the mountains of western Pennsylvania.  A year earlier, I read the incredible book, The Gift of Dyslexia (by Ron Davis), which encouraged me on my journey to find hope and confidence for my dear eight-year-old daughter and her great struggle to read/write.  After thirty hours this week with an amazing and deeply passionate Davis Dyslexia Specialist, my daughter learned how to manipulate her creative mind in non-creative settings and how to understand the world of words around her, based on meaning and experience.  She read the word ‘the’ ten times in a story for me yesterday, without any mistakes, because it finally had MEANING for her picture-thinking mind.  An absolute miracle.  And so many more miracles have come.  I have felt such gratitude and emotion this past week.  Life is incredible!”
